In the calm after the storm by
Francis A. Miniter
Suave, mari magno turbantibus aequora ventis,
e terra alterius spectare laborem,
non quia vexari quemqaumst iucunda voluptas,
sed quibus ipse malis careas quia cernere suave est;
Lucretius, De Rerum Natura, Book II, Lines 1 - 4.
It is sweet to watch from land the labor of another

Parker and Misc. by
Willow Arune
Does anyone else out there collect Robert B. Parker?
I have recently started with this writer. The recent works, back to the
late eighties are complete but one wonders about strange items such as the
"Spenserian Sonnet" and more. "Spenser's Boston" looks like an interesting
addition. Aside from...

Thanks!

Where can I find book's value? by
Gene Mierzejewski
In anticipation of moving to a smaller house in a few years, I'm
breaking up my lifelong book collection of about 5,000 paperbacks and
hardcovers and listing them at Amazon. Thanks to addall, alibris, abebooks
and Amazon itself, I've been able to get a good handle on each book's value
and offer it...

A Littel Boasting by
Willow Arune
Well, with three sales now under by belt, as it were, I have topped $10,000.
The last - 22 books for $3000.
It seems I have discovered a market, one that needs little tending. The
total advertising for the three sales was six e-mails outbound.
I think I'll keep this going for time. My...

Points for American Psycho? by
Mark Healey
The true first is a Vintage paperback but the problem is that they all say
"first" on the copyright page. Ahearn doesn't have it.

A Littel Boasting by
GS
I would just like to add that willow has been curteous in other groups and
that Jennifer and Diane have been stalking her for a while, twisting facts
and trying to get police involved in prosecuting her for untrue allegations.
Another person had to go through the same process and had the police...

Booked Solid by

Apparently some people buy so many books that they run out of places to
put them. Crazy, huh?

Printing dates for Swallows & Amazons, Cape hb by
Matti Lamprhey
I've several copies of this title in the traditional style green boards
from Jonathan Cape (London), ranging from 1947 to 2003. They show
differences in typeface, pagination and printing errors, as well as in
the endpaper maps. But what really baffles me are the apparently gross
inconsistencies...

Nice Little Brag by
[email protected]
Saw a couple of Easton Press SF books (Bujold's Falling Free and
Sawyer's The Terminal Experiment) at $20 each on a swing-by of the
nearest Half-Price Books yesterday, went home, priced them out, and
came back to pick them up, plus scan the mainstream shelves I hadn't
had a chance to peruse the...

Book Grading Service by
mdobson
Imagine! An honest-to-god, signed copy of John Grisham's "The Firm",
graded AND sold by BGS for the low, low bargin-basement price of
$1,947.00!
And BGS guarantees its authenticity (as if Grisham hasn't already
signed 100 million books...)
And Near Mint at that! BGS guarantees it!

Help Remembering a Book Title and Author. by
Joe Todd
A couple of years ago I read a book by an author who spent a few months
living in Hay-On-Wye. I'm totally spaced on the title and author.
I can't find the book in my libraries and a search for subject on Amazon
didn't help. If anyone can identify this book, or even suggest what it
might be, I...
